Underground Completes Phase One Miami International Airport  by Jon Klion We have completed our first year of our five-year fueling project for American Airlines at the Miami International Airport. During the past year we successfully completed: fabricating and installing two large underground concrete isolation control vaults, laying 2500 lineal feet of double wall jet fuel pipe, installing numerous hydrant fuel pits, and abandoning hundreds of lineal feet of antiquated single wall jet fuel pipe. In spite of the extremely tight and difficult task of working within the airside operations area of an extremely busy international airport, our crews were able to finish the assigned tasks both on schedule and under budget. Most importantly, through the diligent efforts of our superintendent, Nick Cunningham, and his entire crew, we completed our first year with a perfect safety record. Congratulations to the entire crew, and keep up the good work. As the Project Manager, and along with our entire crew, we are all looking forward to the new challenges facing us in the upcoming year. The volume of work is expected to increase significantly as the North Terminal Development Project swings into its most critical phase. American Airlines construction of the new "D Extension Terminal" poses numerous challenges and opportunities for our crews as they continue their work on the new hydrant fueling system. We expect to continue the Underground tradition of providing the owner with the safest and most reliable crews constructing the best possible finished product.  Contents   President's Column Applause All Around Benefit Reminders Golf Tournament Next Back to Top of Page Copyright 2001 Underground Construction Co., Inc.
